I've been dipping into "Lost Souls", a volume of short stories by Hwang Sunwon.
One that has particularly caught my attention is "Booze", written in 1945.
Following the August 15th liberation of Korea from Japanese rule, the Nakamura distillery is to be taken over by Koreans. Which Koreans though? As we follow the head clerk Chunho's attempts to manage the takeover, his household, and himself, we see a decent individual struggling with challenges going way beyond a change of name for the distillery.
"Booze" not only absorbed me in its narrative but also made me think about both decolonization and writing about decolonization.

A surreal/but-real tale of a woman who dares to make her own choices and of the struggles of family (most male) who cannot contend with it.
